Enjoy speaking Japanese! Japanese is FUN!! (See Youtube @chiekoosugi233) Born and raised in Kyoto, I’ve called many countries home—USA, Philippines, Indonesia, Tunisia, India, Uruguay, Hungary—and now split my time between Japan and New Zealand. My life has been a journey of connecting with people from all walks of life, embracing new cultures, and diving into languages (I’ve studied ten so far!). I love sharing this global perspective with my students and believe language is the key to understanding the world. If you’re curious about Japanese language and culture, or want to learn from someone who truly understands the excitement and challenges of learning a new language, I’d love to meet you!

In today's lesson I prepared a short story on how when I was a young kid I fell asleep on the boat while traveling alone for the first time, ending up in the wrong city. Chieko helped me correct it, and also provided input on more appropriate words to use. We also worked a bit with new patterns in the textbook. I enjoy our conversations and I learn a lot from them!

My lesson was fun as always and I've been feeling a little better about my listening comprehension lately. I still struggle when watching TV, news, as expected, but conversationally/face-to-face I feel more positive. :) We talked about work, and my upcoming shamisen lesson (which was amazing and can't wait to talk about next time)!
